Wellvale is a hidden gem in KZN. We spent an idyllic weekend in this peaceful, tranquil setting with fantastic hosts. I would strongly recommend a stay in this haven and thank Jaap and Nienke for the wonderful hospitality.

Absolutely beautiful and peaceful. If you are a lover of nature i recommend Wellvale Private resort :)
The rooms are comfortable and homey. And the owners are very friendly and hospitable. Food is great!

Tranquill and far from the madding crowd.Takes you back closer to nature. Wonderful for a family retreat and to recharge your battery.Good value for money.Lovely outside showers. Sumptous breakfast. Owners Jaap and Nienke go the extra mile in making your stay a memorable one. We will definetely go back. Highly recommend a visit

The road to the resort was in a shocking condition and was very stressful to drive on.
The communal kitchen was ill equipped.
